Pros

Decent base salary. Co-workers.

Cons

You won't have a life. Period. They will expect you to eat, drink, and speak Paycom 24/7 (drink the Paycom koolaid). If you have friends, a family, hobbies, or general activities outside of work, this is NOT the job for you. This is an extremely corporate job where "Paycom standards" have to be met on a weekly basis or you'll get written up/fired. Micromanagement is so unbelievable you'll think you're in preschool again. If you're a seasoned professional with sales experience, your head will spin in disbelief and amazement. Don't be fooled by the awesome "culture" they promote. Expect to be working 70-80 hour work weeks with 5 days off TOTAL a year (I'm serious). There is no cushion for "off days" and you'll expect to be in constant contact with your Manager e.g. "send me a picture of where you are?" There is absolutely ZERO trust in your abilities and are constantly under the microscope. Local management is so fake and superficial it's unreal. Look elsewhere unless you're desperate...

Sales representative roles are fast-paced and require cooperation with management. We clearly outline expectations, the effort required and what it takes to be successful during the interviewing process. Our employees receive a combination of PTO, sick leave, personal days and company holidays within their first year – far surpassing the “5 days off total” you describe. Our goal is to work closely with new sales representatives so they are supported and receive continuous coaching. We want our employees to be successful in whatever role they serve at the company. Paycom seeks candidates from a variety of sources, including universities, and we believe the new graduates we hire have a tremendous opportunity to learn and grow in their career here. We appreciate your feedback and wish you success in your future endeavors.

Pros

* Fast learning and professional skill growth. * Great people and strong teams. * Recognized name in the OKC community. * Valuable experience that strengthens future career opportunities, especially in Tech.

Cons

Over the past couple of years, career growth has felt extremely limited. Promotions and meaningful raises have become increasingly rare, and many employees believe these decisions are being driven from the very top. Layoffs and terminations have also become common, creating a constant sense of uncertainty. High performers often take on high-visibility projects with aggressive timelines and limited support. The expectations are unrealistic, and even successful delivery doesn’t usually lead to recognition or advancement. Leadership tends to make decisions very late, creating unnecessary urgency and forcing teams into last-minute scrambles. Benefits have declined, opportunities for advancement have become scarce, and overall morale has suffered significantly. There are talented people here and it can be a good place to gain experience, but I would view it primarily as a stepping stone rather than a long-term destination.
